Laryngitis?homeopathic treatment


 Laryngitis:-

Laryngitis is an inflammation of the voice box, or larynx, that causes your voice to become raspy or hoars

Laryngitis can be short-term or long-lasting (chronic). Most of the time, it comes on quickly and lasts no more than 2 weeks.

Chronic symptoms are those that last 2 weeks or longer. Check with your doctor if your symptoms last more than 2 weeks, because your laryngitis may be caused by more severe problems.

      

causes laryngitis_:-

Laryngitis can be caused by:

Colds or flu. This is the most common cause.

Acid reflux, also known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This type of laryngitis is also called reflux laryngitis.

Overuse of your voice, such as cheering at a sports event.

Irritation, such as from allergies or smoke.

Acid reflux is the most common cause of chronic laryngitis. But chronic laryngitis may be caused by more severe problems such as nerve damage, sores, polyps, or hard and thick lumps (nodules) on your vocal cords. The vocal cords are the vibrating elastic bands inside the larynx that produce your voice.

Some hoarseness may occur naturally with age as your vocal cords loosen and grow thinner.
